Big Bear Family Trip
It was ok. I found hair in the bathrooms. It wasn’t as clean as I expected. You can tell the place gets cleaned enough to where people may stay and not notice. It was a mess with the TVs. I was stressed out because I couldn’t get the TV going and I had 3 kids with me. I wouldn’t stay here again. Sorry

Snowy Getaway
We had a wonderful stay. Due to an incoming storm, we weren’t sure we would make it up the mountain for our reservation. The property owner was helpful and accommodating and provided us with weather and traffic links used by locals, which proved to be extremely helpful. We were able to safely make it up the mountain and did not have to cut our trip short. The cabin felt like a home and was very cozy. We had everything we needed to enjoy a relaxing getaway. Would definitely stay again on our next trip!

The property looked well kept and updated. There were a lot of family games in the house. The kitchen was equipped with enough cookware and dinnerware to prepare and have a family meal. Some of the windows did not have window covers. The one's with covers needed to be replaced.

A most spectacular house
We loved the house, very roomy, comfortable clean, very well maintained. We didn’t cook In the house but everything you would have needed was there. Bedrooms are large, living space excellent, kitchen, bathrooms clean and large. When we arrived it felt like home there was nothing lacking at this property. I hate to leave such a good review because we want this place to be a secret just for us!!!! Highly recommend, great communication with owner.

Nice cozy place, great for a relaxing weekend!
Location close enough to a bus stop to get around the town without needing to drive, but secluded enough to be away from traffic. Nights were very peaceful and the neighborhood was quiet and relaxed. Floorplan was a little confusing and difficult to get used to but not a strike against the place! Nice view out of the kitchen and living room. Overall a great experience!

THIS was by far - the BEST home we have stayed at in Big Bear.!! My family and I loved this place.
Best experience from start to finish. We got to see the Labor Day fireworks show on the Lake from the balcony.!! We also even received a call when we were having trouble (following instructions) opening the front door. Now that is high level service. This property is the best ever.!

We stayed for 3 nights. It was perfect for 2 couples. We slept on the first floor, and friends on the 2nd. Had our own bathrooms. Very quiet neighborhood, and walking distance to the Village. Great communication with the owner. Driveway had plenty of room for our 2 cars.

Great house and location
House is very nice, comfortable and conveniently located. Just a few minutes walk to the village and hiking trails. More than enough space for just three of us (spouse and friend). Check-in process was also very easy. We would definitely like to return to this property in the future.

The place was great. Walkable to Village, not far from ski resort and comfortable and cozy house. Also liked the view of the lake from the kitchen window. Word of warning: the driveway can be tricky if there is a snow embankment and your car has low clearance.

Beautiful house near downtown Big Bear.
My family and I greatly enjoyed our stay at this location. The house is perfect for a family getaway in Big Bear. Our only suggestions would be to add window blinds to the downstairs bedrooms and to change out the mattresses as they are showing wear. Overall we had a wonderful stay and would stay here again in the future.

Lovely, breezy quiet house
We loved the layout of this home with kitchen, living room and master up stairs- with lake views! And two bedrooms downstairs kitchen well appointed and modern Two issues prevented this from being 5 star for us The living room pullout couch was terribly uncomfortable to sit on There were two comfortable recliners but we fought over those since couch was not comfortable Mattresses in master and downstairs queen could be upgraded We had a lovely stay - location can’t be beat easy walk to town and lake Would recommend this property
